Fokos
A not very easily accessible bay with waters that deepen rapidly and steep cliffs, at the north section of Mykonos, 17 km away from Chora.

Megali Ammos
As revealed by its name it is a large sandy beach that was discovered first by the tourists due to its proximity to the Center, on the way to Ornos. Ideal for all those who don’t have a means of transportation as it is very easily accessed on foot. It is 2 km away south of Chora. Susceptible to northern winds, hence appropriate for windsurfing.
Ftelia
“Gone with the wind” could be its motto. Ftelia in the bay of Panormos (9 km north of Chora) is unprotected from the north and due to the raging wind and the high waves there is no competition as far as windsurfing is concerned. The emerald waters and the thick sand rank second since it is the surfers that steal the show.
